Hi Carl,

     Sorry, should have been more clear. Zoho is a giant collection of 
saas "modules", one of which is Books that contains the Invoice section 
that we use. Zoho FSM is a thing, it's been promised for several years 
now but it's not yet at beta stage in the US. It might be available 
elsewhere in the world, but if you try and login to it it just gives you 
the "please email us if you're interested in early access". I had high 
hopes for the Zoho Projects module, but it lacks the basic input fields 
like customer billing and service address's, etc. It's for a company at 
a fixed location that has projects they need to collaborate on. So I'm 
off on the hunt, so far odoo looks the best.
